My Project

I teach two classes of preschoolers of differing abilities, cultures and backgrounds. I strive to bring the world around them to life and spark their curiosity.

The materials in this project will help me show my preschoolers the world of plants and insects through a wide range of activities and experiences.

The garden materials are meant to interest and engage them and provide a variety of opportunities for learning.

From counters to puzzles and from books to gardening materials, your donations will provide hours of education and fun for my little learners!

Mrs. I. Wayne Township Pre-School Grades PreK-2
